In this episode, I take a closer look at what's behind the difficult/toxic/narcissistic personality. What drives this distorted energy? Its not unusual to find the victimhood mentality right at the core... This combined with the vulnerable’ or timid narcissistic presentation, brings a volatile cocktail of seething entitlement, poor meism, moody nobody really gets me, covert vengeance, paranoia & addiction to blaming others... Which is incredibly difficult to deal with or relate to. It also prevents the person from growing up, taking responsibility for themselves & becoming equal adults & good faith actors in the game of life.

Ok, so in this Pod, I reveal some of my favourite covers, tributes & interpretations of some of my favourite artists songs! Generally I prefer the original recordings, however, there are some renditions that absolutely deserve to be highlighted. Of course I quickly discovered that there are far more cool covers than I realised! So there will be more Pods exploring this exciting process...
